Every time, when I for some reason need to set up the Microsoft Outlook again on different computer or different user account for the same group of email accounts I use, I need to go through the process of entering email account information etc again and again. I wonder where they are stored so that I can copy and paste or change the path if I can.

I have found 2 locations where the data is stored. On my XP Home computer, one is C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook and the other is C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook where the actual mail is stored. I had supposed the former was the one I have been looking for. However, it does not seem to be.

I will appreciate any information.

I went looking for this information too. I found an area in the registry that looks like it is encrypted with the user information, so no ideas on how to change it manually.
